This collage combines the ink graphics "Girl and dragon" (2024) and the oil abstraction "Amaranth flashes" (2019). The black and white outline of the first artwork, personifying logic, coexists perfectly with the multi-colored spontaneity of the second one - just like in the yin-yang philosophy, which is so beloved in Eastern countries. Taken separately, "Amaranth flashes" resemble those strange multi-colored spots that we see in photographs from offices measuring a person's aura. In science, the phenomenon on which this process is based is called the "Kirlian Effect". A specialist could conduct a professional diagnostics of the state of the biofield of a person who has undergone scanning. But even without understanding the intricacies of the correspondence of specific colors to definite chakras, one can confidently say about the high degree of emotional stress of the subject. Which is confirmed by the responsibility that lies with the girl playing the flute, taken from the "Girl and dragon". She expressed the need to appease aggressive forces so that they do not destroy a person. It is impossible to defeat them, but it is quite possible to lull their vigilance. Therefore, the girl plays a charming melody on her flute, which makes the dragon swoon.
